Re: 1972 K5 4x4 modified build
Back inside to star on the bumpers. I cut the fangs on the front fenders and rolled them to match the grill surround. I actually got the idea from a member on here, I just can’t seem to remember his name.
I wasn’t sure how I was going to have the front lay out, so I decided to build the rear:
Then I started the front. I tied the bumper to the frame and the B52 front spring perch so I could use it as a pull point::
I wanted to incorporate the front bumper/engine cage/roll cage so I needed to install the steering column and shaft. Since the truck did not come with a column, I grabbed an aftermarket tilt and used it:
I milled an existing steering column shaft to a double D adapter for the column:
I installed my Entropy radiator:
This allowed me to bend up a simple cage for the engine:
